    Perhaps a better question for the Tech section of the forum, no?

    Mark, email me tomorrow. I'll find the name of my local shop. They can usually turn around in a week.

    I have had Eric Shea at PMB do up some parts for me. He does a lot of calipers, so there is a constant stream of parts being plated.

    Mark, send me an email. I have a good plating connection and can have them done in zinc with a light yellow chromate for you. I will have it done with my stuff and you just pay shipping. I will cover the plating cost. Time to give back to the group.

    You cannot go wrong with Eric Shea at PMB Performance. He both restores the caliper mechanisms to perfect working condition and refinishes the outside to the exact, correct, period plating.
